Violence on the High Seas - Whalers vs. Conservationists

I posted earlier on the dispute between the Sea Shepherd Society and a Japanese whaler off of Antarctica.  The dispute has continued to escalate with a threat (unverified for now) of legal action against Sea Shepherd for trespass on the Japanese vessel. 

And, more disturbing, this incident of flashbang grenades and gunfire. Warning - the F - word is heard.
